use the search function, there is a space in the top right corner of the screen for it. this might answer a few things for you if you click here. also maybe make the title of the discussion relevant in the future dude so people know what it is about before clicking on it, "new" didn't tell me much
Ive got the Madrid Market Price and its a pretty nice board.
I love them, I have a Josh Rolf Downhill, and a Market Price, Both are awesome boards. They are built really well. The Market Price is a super fun board for pretty much everything, and the Josh Rolf handles speed better than any other board I've ridden. Those boards are both part of their downhill/performance range so I'm not sure of the quality of their other boards.
What setup you got on the Josh Rolf?

Bear Grizz 852s. Xmas barrels. Stable as fuck. Usually run 70 or 72mm wheels such as 4prez or Cannibals, but I filed some wheel wells in so I've got clearance to run 75mm. I have precisions on other boards but nothing feels as comfortable at speed as this board with Grizzleys.

Tempted to get one then, haha!

 

Think you find me one (deck) for around $150-$180? Would be muchly appreciated!

aite, sounds pretty sick hey.

As far as I know there are only a couple of shops still selling the josh Rolf. I think Motion Boardshop and Carve longboards still carry them. It's a pretty big and heavy board, and not really much good for anything but bombing hills. Probably not everyones cup of tea, but I like it.

It did take a fair bit of work to get the setup dialed too. Theres not a lot of clearance at the front, so running any trucks that shorten the wheelbase or anything really loose isn't really an option.

I guess what I'm trying to say is there are a lot more versatile boards out there. If you want something thats going to be a good allrounder I'd recommend the Market Price. Feels good at speed, yet fun to throw around as well.
